Question

A message signal m(t)=5 sin c(500 t) V is applied to a frequency modulator whose carrier frequency is 100 MHz and frequency sensitivity is 400 Hz/V. The modulation index (or the deviation ratio) of the resultant FM signal will be
[ Assume that, sin c(t)=sin(πt)/πt]

Solution

The correct option is A 8
m(t)=5sin c(500t) V
M(f)=5500rect(f500)
|m(t)|max=5 V
fm(max)=5002=250 Hz
The modulation index of an FM signal can be given by,
β=kf|m(t)|maxfm(max)=400×5250=8
